Filed: 1994-08-19
Abstract: An apparatus (10) and method are described which wind stiffened coreless rolls comprising a spiral wound roll (12) formed from a product paper (14), conventionally paper having a printed pattern or design on one side, and a spiral stiffener sheet (16) extending completely around the roll to stiffen the roll. The apparatus receives webs (40,42) of product paper and stiffening paper, severs the stiffening paper (42) into short lengths (20) for winding into the roll of product paper and automatically feeds the stiffening sheet onto a length of the product paper (14) which is wound into a roll (12). The two webs (40,42) are fed to either side of a rotating cutter roll (66) and anvil assemblies (72,88) are moved into engagement with a knife carried on the cutter roll selectively to sever the webs as required.

Abstract: A chemical vapor deposition reactor (50) comprises in combination a nozzle (52) and means (54) for equalizing a reactant chemistry and a flux of reactants. The nozzle is disposed within a chamber (15) opposite a susceptor (14) upon which a substrate (56) is supported during chemical deposition of a film upon a surface of the substrate from a reactant gas released into the chamber by the nozzle. The nozzle comprises an inlet port (58) for receiving the reactant gas from a gas supply and an outlet port (60) for releasing the reactant gas therethrough. The equalizing means substantially equalizes a reactant chemistry and a flux of reactants uniformly across the surface of the substrate.

Abstract: In the process for identifying a programme information containing audio and/or video data programme information, especially a music title, a special identification code is first allocated to the data programme information. The audio and/or video data and the identification code are transmitted by a transmitter (1) to a receiver (2) and separated at the receiver by means of a filter (3). During the reproduction of the audio and/or video data, an operator input is monitored by means of which the operator can demand the identification of the data programme information just received. The operator input via an input device (4) is acquired by a control device (5). The identification code is stored in a store (6) at each operator input. The identification code can subsequently be read out of the store (6') with the aid of a read-out device (10) and further processed. Additional data on the programme information (e.g. interpreter, title, composer) are read out of a data bank (11) with the aid of the identification code and displayed and/or printed out via an output device (12).

Abstract: A system provides a position and orientation (P&O) of a vehicle in a known environment. An environment model is constructed from known parameters. A coarse P&O (90) unit provides approximate vehicle location information of the vehicle to an environment feature extractor (20b) which extracts three-dimensional (3D) identifying characteristics of the environment near the coarse vehicle location. A spatial imaging device (11) provides a vision signal to a vision feature extractor (20a) which extracts identifying two-dimensional (2D) features from the vision signal. A feature-based matcher (70) compares the extracted 2D and 3D features to identify an observation P&O in which the 3D model features will appear as the 2D image features. This observation P&O, after correcting for relative camera displacements between the vehicle and spatial imaging device, is used as the P&O of the vehicle, and also used to determine the inherent error of the coarse locating unit. This error is used to adjust the coarse locating unit's readings until another match is obtained between the 2D and 3D features.

Abstract: A database system comprises a database storing a number of records of different types. The system handles database queries, involving joins between a number of different record types. Each query is first preprocessed to identify optimal starting points for accessing the records. Each of these optimal starting points may be a record type containing a key that is equated to a literal in the query, or may be a record type that contains a field that is equated to a key of another record type in the query. The system then generates a data structure comprising a number of nodes, each node representing one of the record types in the query and indicating an access method for that record type. The nodes are organized into a number of chains, each having a head node representing one of the optimal starting points, and each successive node in each chain representing a record type that can be accessed from the record type represented by a preceding node in the chain by an index mechanism, a hashed access mechanism or an ownership mechanism. A virtual row of the join is constructed by accessing each of the nodes and reading a corresponding record using the specified access method. Further virtual rows are constructed by tracing a backward path through the nodes, starting from the last node in the last chain until a node is encountered for which at least one further record is available for reading from the database. Then, a forward path is traced, starting from this node, reading from the database one record of each record type represented by each node in the forward path, using the access method indicated by each node, until the last node in the last chain is reached.
